2 Timothy 4:1
I give you orders, before God and Christ Jesus, who will be the judge of the living and the dead, and by his revelation and his kingdom;

Be preaching the word at all times, in every place; make protests, say sharp words, give comfort, with long waiting and teaching;

-----

1 Timothy 1:4
Or to give attention to stories and long lists of generations, from which come questionings and doubts, in place of God's ordered way of life which is in faith;

1 Timothy 1:5
But the effect of the order is love coming from a clean heart, and a knowledge of what is right, and true faith:

Giving no attention to the fictions of the Jews and the rules of men who have no true knowledge.

If any man gives different teaching, not in agreement with the true words of our Lord Jesus Christ, and with the teaching which is in agreement with true religion,

He has an over-high opinion of himself; being without knowledge, having only an unhealthy love of questionings and wars of words, from which come envy, fighting, cruel words, evil thoughts,

1 Timothy 6:5
Bitter talk of men who, being evil in mind and dead to what is true, take the faith to be a way of making profit.

O Timothy, take good care of that which is given to you, turning away from the wrong and foolish talk and arguments of that knowledge which is falsely so named;

And make straight roads for your feet, so that the feeble may not be turned out of the way, but may be made strong.

Who keep men from being married and from taking food which God made to be taken with praise by those who have faith and true knowledge.

2 Timothy 3:1
But be certain of this, that in the last days times of trouble will come.

2 Timothy 3:2
For men will be lovers of self, lovers of money, uplifted in pride, given to bitter words, going against the authority of their fathers, never giving praise, having no religion,

2 Timothy 3:3
Without natural love, bitter haters, saying evil of others, violent and uncontrolled, hating all good,

2 Timothy 3:4
False to their friends, acting without thought, lifted up in mind, loving pleasure more than God;

2 Timothy 3:5
Having a form of religion, but turning their backs on the power of it: go not with these.

2 Timothy 3:7
Ever learning, and never coming to the knowledge of what is true.

-----

2 Thessalonians 2:9
Even the one whose coming is marked by the working of Satan, with all power and signs and false wonders,

I am surprised that you are being so quickly turned away from him whose word came to you in the grace of Christ, to good news of a different sort;

But even if we, or an angel from heaven, were to be a preacher to you of good news other than that which we have given you, let there be a curse on him.

-----
